Chapter 244 Consort Fucha
Chapter 244 Consort Fucha
Big Fat Orange made a decisive decision and gave the order in a deep voice:
"Su Peisheng, investigate this matter thoroughly for me immediately!"
No matter who is involved, you must investigate this matter thoroughly for me!
At this point, the chubby orange cat, Pinghe, began to suspect everyone in the harem.
Of course, the people he suspected most were Empress Fucha Peiyun and Empress Nian Shilan.
As empresses, the two of them controlled the harem.
He is the most likely person to have the ability to poison Fu Yurao.
But he quickly dismissed his doubts.
The two had no grudge against Yu Rao, so it was unlikely that they would harm her.
However, we still need to investigate before drawing any conclusions.
Su Peisheng knew the matter was of great importance and dared not be negligent in the slightest. He quickly accepted the order and left.
Su Peisheng felt that only the master in the palace possessed such methods.
But Su Peisheng naturally wouldn't say much to the fat orange.
He is now loyal only to his master.
After Wen Shichu and several other senior physicians took Fu Yurao's pulse, they all frowned.
I felt deeply that this poison was strange and elusive.
They exchanged glances, and Wen Shichu carefully said:
"Your Majesty, the toxicity of this poison is extremely rare, and once it enters the meridians..."
The illness became increasingly complicated due to its intertwining with Lady Zhao's old ailment.
Although we have done our utmost, we can only temporarily alleviate Consort Zhao's suffering; we cannot cure it completely.
Big Fat Orange's face grew increasingly grim. He gripped the armrest tightly and said in a deep voice:
"I don't care what methods you use, you must find an antidote! Otherwise, I will not let you off lightly!"
If this poison is so potent, then the person behind it must have ulterior motives. If it is not dealt with in time, the consequences will be dire.
Big Fatty Orange is terrified of dying, especially afraid that the medicine will end up being used on him.
Everyone responded hastily, their hearts filled with panic.
The elderly doctors felt that a great calamity was about to befall them.
This poison is so rare that if an antidote isn't found in time...
Fu Yurao's life is in danger, and they will also be unable to escape death.
Wen Shichu wasn't that panicked; he was just like Su Peisheng.
Everyone suspects that it was their master who did this, using such unpredictable and mysterious methods.
Only the mistress, Empress Fucha in the palace
It's unclear what Zhen Yurao did to offend her master, prompting him to take such drastic measures.
Even the former Zhen Huan had never been subjected to such severe punishment by her master.
The Zhen sisters are indeed a nuisance; luckily, he got off this pirate ship long ago.
Otherwise, not only would he be in danger, but the entire Wen family would also be at risk.
Wen Shichu and several senior physicians studied the medicine for a long time, but they still couldn't find a way to detoxify it.
I can only prescribe medication to relieve the pain.
However, Fu Yurao's condition showed no signs of improvement and instead worsened.
Her chest cramps became more frequent, and each episode lasted longer.
Symptoms such as shortness of breath and dizziness even began to appear.
Fu Yurao was tormented by this strange illness, and her health deteriorated.
Her once round face has become thin.
His face was ashen and pale as paper, devoid of any color, as if he had lost all vitality.
Her eyes were filled with pain and despair.
The once beautiful woman has become a sickly beauty, a sight that evokes pity.
At first, the chubby orange cat would visit her, but as time went on...
He gradually lost patience and stopped going there frequently.
However, he would ask Wen Shichu every day if he had found a way to detoxify.
It wasn't that he cared so much about Fu Yurao, but rather that he was afraid of dying.
He was afraid that the person behind it all might poison him as well.
Meanwhile, Qingying would find opportunities to go to the Imperial Garden every day.
They didn't take Fu Yurao's illness to heart at all.
Fu Yurao was so tormented by her illness that she had no energy to care about whether Qingying had successfully gotten involved with Hongchang.
When Zhen Huan, who was imprisoned in Suiyu Pavilion, learned that her younger sister was seriously ill, her heart tightened.
He knocked over the teacup in his hand.
She was extremely anxious and wanted to help herself, but she was powerless to do so because of the distance.
Left with no other option, she could only secretly write a letter and have it delivered to Wen Shichu.
She reminded him of their past relationship and pleaded with him to save her sister.
Seeing Zhen Huan so anxious, Jinxi quickly comforted her:
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Wen is highly skilled; he can even cure the plague. He will certainly do his best to save Consort Zhao."
You don't need to worry too much.
What you need to do now is take good care of your health and not be too anxious.
"You cannot leave Suiyu Pavilion now. If your health collapses, how can you help the young mistress?"
Zhen Huan nodded slowly. Although she was extremely anxious, she knew that Jinxi's words made sense.
She simply couldn't remain silent any longer.
Hiding in this Broken Jade Pavilion, he could only watch helplessly as his younger sister suffered endless torment in the palace.
Her heart ached as if it were being gnawed at by a million ants.
Ultimately, it was all her fault.
It was her incompetence that led to the tragic deaths of the entire Zhen family in Ningguta.
It was her naiveté that forced Yu Rao to enter the palace and suffer.
It was her high self-esteem that made it difficult for her to move forward in the deep palace.
Zhen Huan was filled with resentment at the injustice of fate. Why did God have to torment her and her sister like this?
She was even more heartbroken by the emperor's cold-heartedness and indignation.
It was precisely because of his cold-heartedness that the entire Zhen family suffered such a tragedy.
A resolute glint flashed in Zhen Huan's eyes. She bit her lip tightly, as if she wanted to swallow all the pain.
Then, she said firmly:
"Jinxi, I can't just sit here and wait to die any longer."
Yu Rao is my own sister, and I absolutely cannot stand by and watch her be tormented to death by this poison.
I must find a way, even if it takes all my strength, I must save her!
Seeing Zhen Huan's unwavering resolve, Jinxi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
She knew that once Zhen Huan made up her mind, it would be as firm as a rock and unshakable.
So she said softly, "Your Majesty, if you really have this intention, then we can only discuss it further."
However, since you are currently in the Broken Jade Pavilion, your movements are quite restricted. How should we proceed?
Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan remained silent, but stared intently at Cui Jinxi, her gaze seemingly able to penetrate one's soul.
Cui Jinxi and Zhen Huan exchanged glances for a moment, and then she immediately understood what she meant.
She was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about something.
Finally, Cui Jinxi broke the silence and said:
"Your Majesty, I understand. I will do my utmost to help you achieve your wish."
Zhen Huan was deeply moved upon hearing this.
Over the years, she has weathered many storms in this deep palace, and those around her have either left or scattered.
Now only Jinxi and Xiaoyunzi remain loyal to her.
Zhen Huan gazed at Jinxi, her eyes filled with gratitude, and said softly:
"Jinxi, I'm so grateful to have you all these years."
Without you, I'm afraid I would have long since lost my way in this palace, and wouldn't know how to even stand on my own two feet.
Zhen Huan's eyes reddened slightly, and her voice trembled with a sob.
Jinxi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
